The first printing has Tony the Tiger with the copyright in his scarf, no copyright next to the team logo, and is the printing with all of the statistical errors. The second printing has the copyright in the lower right corner next to Tony the Tiger, no copyright next to the team logo, and has the statistical errors corrected. These two printings were only available in the cereal boxes. The third printing is the same as the second except that forty three of the cards have a copyright next to the team logo. The third printing is the very common mail in factory set. The thirteen cards (not including the four Phillies) that do no not have a copyright next to the team logo are (Red Sox) Carl Yastrzemski, Fred Lynn, Dwight Evans, Jim Rice, Dennis Eckersley, (Astros) Craig Reynolds, J R Richard, Terry Puhl, (A's) John Henry Johnson, Mario Guerrero, (Blue Jays) Roy Howell, (Brewers) Paul Molitor, (White Sox) Wayne Nordhagen. These thirteen cards are the same in both the second and third printings. Six of the nine cards in question, Richie Zisk, Rod Carew, Willie McCovey, Vida Blue, Buddy Bell, Dave Parker, cannot be found in the second printing version, copyright next to Tony the Tiger and no copyright next to the team logo. Three of the cards in question, all Phillies, Pete Rose, Steve Carlton, Garry Maddox, cannot be found be in the second printing version of copyright next to Tony the Tiger and old square Phillies logo rather than the new "P" logo, which is how Larry Bowa is in the second printing. In other words, those nine cards can only be found with two different printings, not three. This is only my opinion, but I believe that only the nine cards were completely updated in the second printing while the others weren't until the third printing. Edited to add that the team logos of the Phillies, Cardinals, Cubs, Royals, and Reds were changed in varying degrees from the second printing to the third printing, and that two Dodgers, Rick Monday and Doug Rau, were mistakenly printed with no copyright next to Tony the Tiger in both the second and third printings.
